ATTACHIEENT FOR WATER-CLOSETS.

To all whom it may concern; Be it known that I, PETER Tnnonon TKATZSCHENKO, a subject of the Emperor of Russia, and residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New following is a specification.

sectiohal view of the same on the line x-x.

York, have invented certain new and useful Improve ments in Attachments for Water-Closets, of which the My invention relates to water closet attachment and more particularly to the addition of sanitary means to the seat of the closet and the convenient attachment oftoilet paper thereto. These and other details and objectsof my invention are morefully described in the following specification and set forth in the appended claims:

In the drawings accompanying this specification and forming a part thereof like reference characters are used to designate the same parts in the various figures and: a a

Figure 1 is a plan view of a water closet seat illustrating my invention. Fig. 2' is a longitudinal vertical an enlarged sectional detail of one side of the seat through the line y-,-y.

To the ordinary hinged wooden seat Q of a water'- closet is hinged at 6, a thin metal ring or frame 7 conforming with the shape of wooden seat but slightly larger to overlap same as shown. The ring is dished, or convex'on the upper side so that it is adapted to make contact withtheseat only at their respective edges and between the two parts, at the joint of the greatest distance of separation, are disposed coiled springs 8 for the purpose of affording a yielding effect to the ring. The ring is also provided with lateral ears 9, perforated to receive an adjusting screw 10 of a clampll, while two of these clamps are here shown, one on each side of the seat, more maybe adopted if found desirable.

Upon the upper face of the ring 7 and held in place by the clamps 11 is a pad or series of sheets of toilet or other paper 12, cut to the size and shape of the ring and having at its rear side, or any other suitable point,

a lip or flap 13 which may befound useful in separat ing and removing the-sheets as needed for consumption, or to provide a clean and new sheet for theupper face of the pad.v

It is obvious that Ido not limit myself to the use of toilet paper alone in the application of a paper cushion to a water closet seat but may utilize paper 'of any cushioning effect for the user of the seat and the temthe comfort of the seat in cold weather.

. What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:--

1. In an attachment for water closets the combination with a seat having an opening, of a hinged frame orrlug convex in cross-section, springs between the seat and the framepa pad of paper haying detaching means for each sheet and conforming in size and shapewith the ring, and adjustable clamps to secure the pad to the ring.

2. In an attachment for water closets the combination with a seat having an opening, of a thin metal ring or frame slightly overlapping the seat and dished out from below and convex on the upper side whereby contact with 4 the seat is made on the edges only, and coiled springs between the seat and the frame to make said frame yielding.

3; In an attachment for water closets the combination 'of a thin metal ring or frame convex in cross section and having lateral ears with an opening in each, a pad of paper having detaching means for each sheet conforming in size and'shape with themring, and adjustable clamps p assing each through the opening in each ear of the ring and securing the pad to same.

In, testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this perature and texture of the paper will add greatly to specificationin the presehce of two subscribing witnesses,
